The Japanese scientists have cracked WPA for one minute

Japanese researchers Toshihiro Ohigashi from university Hiroshima and Masakatu Morii from university Kobe have developed a way for breaking shifrovannogo connections WPA of all for one minute.

Attack is made by reading shifrovannogo the traffic between the computer and the routers using enciphering WPA.

It is necessary to notice, that in November of last year, it was informed on possibility of detour of protection for 15 minutes.

Attack works only on WPA the systems using algorithm Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and does not work on the systems using WPA with enciphering AES.

According to researchers though there are considerable restrictions for attack use, nevertheless, it is necessary to avoid enciphering WPA with TKIP, no less than report WEP which for a long time is considered very unreliable, writes securitylab.ru
